I had a great time talking with Phil Young and Ron King on Phil's program Folk On The Fringe on 3MDR in April this year.Phil is a terrific singer songwriter (and a handy guitar player) in his own right so it was a really informative interview.The show is presented each Wednesday night and is a brilliant opportunity for folk musicians to get their music out on the airwaves.I was lucky enough to play a whole bunch of my own songs live on the show.
